Very quaint property. Very helpful staff. Small restaurant open at times. Small room and bathroom but good for solo travel.

10/10 Exceptional

Squeaky clean and comfortable!

Really pleased with my stay. My room was squeaky clean and very comfortable. I was welcomed by the proprietor, who was very helpful, as was everyone else that I met. This is a gem of a property that is close enough to be a short walk from the city centre, but away enough to be quiet and relaxing. Definitely recommended!

Will be returning next year for our annual Xmas shopping trip to Chester

Andrew, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved this Hotel. Very welcoming and friendly. I particularly liked the fact that the breakfast was freshly made to order and piping hot, no lukewarm buffet. Good evening meal options also. Within a mile to Chester town to walk or staff will call you a taxi. Will definitely return
Carole, 2-night trip

Clean room, comfy but low bed. Naff shower. Good food but disappointing dinner service. Ok breakfast.
Mrs E, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Nice hotel with friendly staff but dont eat there!

Parking is limited in the small car park but I found a space. The hotel is nice and the staff are very friendly and attentive. The hotel and rooms are dated so if you like that you will like it here. The bed for me was small and a bit lumpy but otherwise, I had a good sleep. Expensive small bottled beers and no draught beer. The menu is limited, I didn't eat in as the town is a 15-minute walk away with better restaurants. Lots of lounge areas to relax in and meet people. Full English Breakfast was cooked to order however the food quality was not that great. The sausage was cheap tasting and overcooked, mushrooms had I think paprika over them which made them taste funny, otherwise the rest is ok.
Simon, 1-night trip

2 night stay.

Staff and management very good and wait staff polite and had a lovely manner. Breskfast good. Shower head in room needs some attention as appears to have build up of dirt or something on it.

Antony, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Provides shampoo, shower gel, hairdryer. Clean and comfortable beds and good breakfast. Pleasant helpful staff. Convenient for what we wantes to do. Stayed many times. Hotel a bit dated in terms of decor and comment on that as that may be important to others but isnt to me. All pluses for my wants and needs = outweigh that)
Nicola, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet location within 20 mins walk of Chester. Didn't eat there only because we were traveling to and from Liverpool I would stay there again

Quaint

Quaint place to stay. Close to centre of Chester. Great breakfast.
Bert E, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay at the Brookside!

Very restful hotel. Very comfortable, with good atmosphere. Exellent breakfasts. Good location for city access without all the noise of the centre. One small peoblem: the shower in room 19 has a pumped hot water system which swamps the cold water feed. The pressures need balancing, as the shower tends to scald.
Dennis, 2-night trip

A quiet night

I stayed on a Sunday night and there was no ine around. The hotel and surrounding area, was very quiet. Everything worked as it should.

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely owner and friendly staff. Was able to park the car early. Didn’t opt for the meals due to other arrangements. Nice and clean room, brilliant shower. Would suggest extra pillows being available for the bed, but that is a personal preference. Would definitely stay again.
Michelle, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cosy room; great breakfast; excellent service. However: car park cramped, and pricing for a single night excessive.
